MAGA members need to travel more. Travel will eliminate Trumpism.

The premise of yoar thread is based on a poisoning the well fallacy or a straw man fallacy;

It is absolutely absurd to bleev that those who like Trump haven't traveled, been to university, aren't well read, or are necessarily all bigots.

I could name plenty of famous folks that support Trump that belie yoar dumb premise.

Mark Twain would condemn this entire circus, both Trump and Biden, surely.

You assume all these people havnt traveled? how can you do that?

I guess because you make the same fatal assumption that they are all biggots, your mind just cant get itself
out of the rut.

This is a statement of the background of people who broad based experience tens to make them more accepting and less bigotted.
These are characteristics essential to Democracy. You need to accept and work with people who are and think different than you. If you cannot do that, you cannot have a democracy.

Yes, we cannot have governemt who tries to eliminate all those who do not think like them. Trump does that to a degree no other has.

Those who have exposure and get to know different cultures, races and religion tend to be less bigoted.

But you cant assume people are bigoted just because they voted for Trump. Its a fallacy. You can point to some examples but there are tens of millions of people. Racist Trump voters is a political talking point that gets people riled up, so its supported by media who are already biased politically.

So. . . you are describing yourself then?

Projection

Projection is the process of displacing one’s feelings onto a different person, animal, or object. The term is most commonly used to describe defensive projection—attributing one’s own unacceptable urges to another. For example, if someone continuously bullies and ridicules a peer about his...

Because, for where I am sitting. . . the GOP and MAGA folks, have worked more with Biden, than the reverse, TBH.

When I read threads about Trump and the MAGA folks, it is usually never about their policy preferences, or engaging them on issues. . it is just fallacy after fallacy.

The ruling oligarchy has treated them, essentially the same as they had treated the Occupy folks.

YOU? Show yourself to have some serious psychological problems.... from where most folks sit.

You are running out of real policy arguments, so? Now you have to grasps at straws.

Definitely all Trump voters are not racist but a very large % are.

Donald Trump openly entertains the US's most well known neo-Nazi, Nick Fuentes along with the bigot Ye. David Dike, the best known KKK leader in the US strongly endorses Trump.
If Trump openly accepts the endorsement of the biggest racists in our country, he is pursing the racist vote.
The biggest racists in the USA support Trump because they know their causes will do better in a Trump Presidency.

That is one reason I would never vote for Trump

Thank you, Dr. Meister, for your diagnosis.
I agree that ther is not enough talk on the issues. Two reasons.
1. Trump focuses on the clim he is the victim. His biggest selling point is the deep state is after me and they will be after you. Help me. The victim story is louder then the issue story.
2. The biggest reason I am not voting for Trump is not issues. The reason he is not fit to lead. The fact he is a danger to our Democracy. The people making this point effectively are many Republicans who have worked with him.

Amen.

On boards like this it is very easy to see who does not travel out of the country much if at all.

There can be a few exceptions of the bigoted traveling and it not affecting their stupidity.
